How to actually place an order? What are typical reply times?

[Elizaade1989]

Hello, I'm new here. Did my research and want to place an order with one of the popular vendors. My question is, how do you actually go about doing that? They have an email address listed and I sent an email to it with a screen shot of their price list and the peptide I want. But is that the actual way to do it? I don't want to wait for 2 weeks without a response before realizing I did it the wrong way lol. Any help from someone who has placed orders from vendors on here will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I use Telegram to contact the sales person.
It goes pretty quickly. Be direct. Don't get lost in translation. Keep the conversation simple.

They respond pretty fast.
Keep Peking time in mind. They also need to sleep.

You failed to mention the vendor you are using so you will not get vendor specific ordering info.

Assuming the vendor you are using is in China they generally need the following info:

• Product requested with dosage and number of kits
• Your name
• Shipping address
• Method of payment
• Phone number (not all vendors need this)

They will respond with any other questions, the total order $ amount and the crypto wallet address or other payment logistics info.

Since it is still very early Monday morning in China (5:30 AM) you probably will not hear back from them 6-10 hours.

They are half a day ahead and peak is 9ish PM to 5ish AM (US Eastern Time) Usually no weekends or holidays (their holidays AND ours!). I'd say their busiest days are M-Th and Promos are usually early in the week. If you're trying to order from a Price List you are going to over pay!

They respond faster to new orders than order inquiries and often don't respond at all to lengthy questions. Short and sweet! I give a vendor 3 week days to respond before I move on and 3 weeks minimum before asking for tracking.

Thank you for your response. Here is a screenshot of my email. I seem a little confused by 'overpay' by ordering from their priceless, could I negotiate a discount?
The vendor is Shanghai Senria

I want to order from their US warehouse as the price difference doesn't seem to be that much compared to waiting for the delivery from China. And hoping there are other ways except crypto to make a payment

Sometimes they take Alibaba payments. Depends on how much fuckery is afoot with chargebacks. But generally, it's easiest to pay them with crypto.

Yes, a kit is 10 vials. The mg listed is a per-vial basis. So you'd get 100mg of Reta if you ordered the Reta 10mg kit (10*10=100).

They won't negotiate their prices.

The 'overpay' referred to the promo sales that many vendors frequently offer; not to price negotiations / haggling.

You're good here. This technically is a promo for US customers. Don't be surprised if:

*Shipping takes longer than you expected because it's not actually in the US, just headed here from CN.

*They tell you they are sold out (after you pay) but you can spend more to meet CN minimum order quantity (MOQ).

*You don't get a shipping confirmation or any communication past address confirmation.

I use SRY and have no problem with them. The above caveats are par for the course.

PS - Avoid Lucy.

Same, but my vendor sends a tracking number. I use a different vendor

Who's Lucy?!

One of Sry's representatives. There are several.

Well, I have paid them through bank transfer. Got a reply saying they need to confirmation the transaction and send me a tracking number. That was on Wednesday. Today is Saturday, not sure if it has been shipped or if a tracking number will really be sent... or if it will just show up at my front door lol

Or you might get the infamous "label created." Which will not update until the package is in USPS possession... Could be hours, could be months. This is the part where you traded off expediency for a lower price. I do it all the time so not being judgy.

 

[Elizaade1989]

Got a tracking number surprisingly. It's coming from Ontario Canada via USPS. Expected to be here on Monday. Sounds promising

 

[Elizaade1989]

Looked up the tracking info and it has already moved through a couple of distribution centres... at least there is movement lol. Can't wait for Monday omg

I'd venture to guess that's Ontario, CA (California)

Questions: If nexaph has the peptides I want, I can buy them with a card on the website and know they are 99% pure? If so, are people doing the testing just to be extra certain?
Also, is there any fear of this opportunity to buy around the cost going up or the whole thing being wiped out by the government?

They meant the price list price is always much higher than promo prices. In this case you paid $1.80/mg of reta which is pretty high as there have been some recent sales as low as $0.63/mg.

$1.80 is PGB prices and they are recognized as being pretty expensive (but at least you get extensive testing and very fast domestic shipping)

I have ordered on Nexaph for Reta 24 mg vial. will they send BAC and syringes?

No, you do not know they’re 99%. You cannot be sure any vendor’s testing is not cherry picked for positive results, or that they haven’t done something with the batch that causes premature degradation leading to lower purity by the time you get it. This includes nexa who has made mixed statements about whether they outsource their production to who knows who in China, or are DIYing it in their garage here in the USA, probably some combination of the two but they like to lie so hard to evaluate. There is some evidence that they toy with ingredients and that has caused degradation issues, though.

Point is that post-purchase testing is an absolutely critical step, it isn’t just for funsies. Vendors’ tests are marketing tools, not harm reduction tools. Consider the incentive structure they’re working within.

Start a new thread for a new conversation. But no, you need to buy those things yourself.

 

[Yankeegurl_LQJ]

All you will know is that the batch they sent in for testing is 99%. Some vendors have been known to bait and switch. That is why everyone joins testing groups or does their own. Also, Nexaph just had probs with Lipo-C that FPPG sent off for testing. Two vials had levels of L- Carnitine way above what they were supposed to be and two vials that should have had B12 showed none. To be fair it is said that maybe the B12 didn't show as it possibly was an alternate non-tested form (hydroxocobalamin). Who knows.

Could you share your vendor please? Had my delivery marked as delivered to mailbox at 2.53pm on Monday, go out there literally 5 minutes later and there is nothing in there. Waited for 3 days incase it's a late delivery, still nothing. Went to usps and the package shows it was scanned and delivered to my address. So I'm out 180dollars basically. Never had a stolen package in my life so this was very surprising. Wanted to reorder from my vendor but they are out of stock in the us warehouse

Have you checked with your neighbors?

 

[Elizaade1989]

I did. No one saw it and usps claims the GPS shows it was last scanned at my address.so yeah, outta luck. It sucks... I want to reorder but with post office pick up, no home delivery. I wonder if whoever took it even knows what to do with it
